[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Trimegisto:
@ Agent, the GPS service is not provided by any company! I have a GPS in my car and another in my X1. I pay for the software to use the radio signals to locate my position on the maps. And that's it! Some companies (like Nokia) provide this as a service but the essence is that in the entire Europe and the USA I can tell for sure the GPS works for free.

Do you understand? You pay for the maps,the maps included in the software package of your choice and the interface to use them just like in any other software!

The hardware in the Xperia is able to receive GPS signal anywhere in the world! Give it a try, install a GPS package, some freeware and you will have a good surprise! You have GPS in your country, believe me!

Your problem is related with the availabilty of maps of your country and that is a very diferent issue. The three major companies, (Navtech, GDT, and Tele Atlas) buy their digital mapping databases from the countries own geographical instituitions and them updated them by their own. I searched the sites from iGo, TomTom and Garmin but there was no reference to your country... But you do have GPS signal, ok?

Bad news: Whyle I was writing these lines my X1 battery went from 25% to 0%!!! in front of my eyes and in huge jumps of 4% and 5%. So, in 5 or 6 min I lost 25%. Never happened to me before! I think the internet was on but this is ridiculous... This is a very seriuos issue, forget about the footprints! Focus on the battery drain, please

it works but not changing contacts photos .. and I faced the same problem with all Leo Roms...:D
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
yes, but someone needs to provide the maps ..... no company to make the maps and provide them.

n m not n expert on gps and dono much in technical details, but the radio signal needs to come from some where :p none has licence to do that here. or something. o was reading about it in some plc i cant recall

@overshadowss: my photo changes too
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Jablko:
From latest XPERIO 28005:

- Two album icons.

- LSK icons still weird in contacts.

Otherwise it's all good, thank you!

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Poetique:
Anybody else having freezing and really, reeeaaaaaly slow startups? If it starts at all. I had to hard reset to get my phone to even boot a second ago and I hadn't changed a single setting...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Trimegisto:
The licensing is something that might be tricky but the radio signal is coming from the satellites themselves and not from any ground station, trust me , I know what I am talking about.

You should be able to use the geotagging feature in the Xperia R3 cam. Have you tried? And you should install a real GPS software, I won't tell where and how to get it but even without maps you will see the GPS satellite constelation available in your country. Obviously, without maps is of little use in land because of the lack of roas information but if you decide to go to the jungle or something you can use it for orientation! Try it!

In the Western world, besides some suckers paying to Nokia and related stuff, nobody pays the GPS service because it doesn't exist! Tha satellites are broadcasting the signal above our heads for free.

I have no idea if they interrupt the broadcasting over the Indian subcontinent, but I would be surprised if they do.

Give it a try, do it!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] KennyXL:
I have the random freezing (especially during charging when it's at or near 100% charge), but it's no slower during boot than any other ROMs. Don't get me wrong, they all seem really slow during boot to me, but none moreso than the other.

Hi again,

could it be, that the Sense-Musictab is not able to read OGG-Vorbis-Files :eek: :confused:

is there any way to make Sense able to read ogg-files???

The version - v5.0.28005-MAX- same thing happens, any idea how to solve it ...

the sound when a call is always 50% even if you have selected in settings 100%, always sounds in calls to the half.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Poetique:
Mine is booting like a 66 MHz Pentium 1 trying to run Vista...

Taking anywhere from 5-10 minutes to boot.

It finally gave me an error though saying that the device was unable to boot because it was either powered down incorrectly or I tried to install an application from an untrusted source...

Which... the only applications I have came with the rom.

The only way the phone has been reset is via the softreset command or the power button.

What the hell?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Svv4T:
Great work again Agent. I love v5 28005MAX, especially the 4x4 icons on the homescreen. Anyway, I've got just one little question.

I'm using a program called Icon Changer to ... change the icons of some programs so that the home screen and the start menu look better. It works really well except for a few icons: Google Maps, MSN Messenger, Marketplace, Mediaplayer, Calculator and maybe a few other ones I forgot. It's weird because in the Start Menu (honeycomb) they show up as the new changed icon I want to use, but in the Home manilla screen, they still show as the old default icons. It's really not a big issue, but I'm just wondering if there's a way to fix that. If not, well, no big deal :rolleyes:

Keep up the good work! Thanks! :D
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] joerlp:
Hi,

Just want to offer my sincere thanks for a wonderful ROM. I am now converted to LEO-28005MAX... from being a loyal follower of TR ROM... (Please don't use that against me...)

Just want to share a couple of observations of the LEO 5 ROM (note: they actually don't cause any operational fault):

1. A2DP Bluetooth - Incompatible with Sony Ericsson HBH-DS220 and MH907. The phone-call function via those SE Bluetooth stereo headsets worked fine, but when use them for music, the music cracks and doesn't play properly. I have tested on iTech Clip-D Radio and Jabra BT3030, they don't have the same problem as the SE BT A2DP headsets.

2. HTC Sense - People --> Contact Detail: Massage Tab on "Contact Detail" actually showed full list of "People/Contacts", it does not display message at all.

3. HTC Sense - Messages --> When clicked on a message, the usual "Conversation" page doesn't show up - in fact no action as a result. (Did a full Factory Reset, still same problem)

4. Landscape support - when trying to "type" in Stock Code look up or City Look up, the landscape is now displaying properly.

Again, those observations do not cause any operational issues. Overall, the ROM is stable, fast and not battery draining. I loved it.

Please keep up the good work!!! Have a wonderful ... err... Holiday... (Sorry, if I use the C****mas, the PC police might get me....)

Hi All Experts,

Can i know what is the actual different between LEO, LEO-MAX,Xperio and Rhodium\TOPAZ??

Sorry if i repeated the question in one of the thousand post. I tried to search but i fail to find a good answer.

I'm trying to find a stable ROM to flash and this is my first time and i'm newbie in this forum....hope someone can help and give some advice which to choose from? I prefer a ROM with TF3D and stable,i doing alot of calls and SMS.

Thanks in advance.

Appreciate if anyone can guide me:-)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] icbicb:
As far as I know Leo has Manilla 2.5 , rhodium/topaz manilla 2.1, xperio has no manilla at all.

I have a question is it possible to map right silver button to task manager. When I soft reset that button just goes to home per default. Can it be fixed ?

I use latest valkyrie 5.0 28005 TR
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Dragonflysendr@X1:
yes but GPS signal come from sat no needed other radio or ground entena to signal...but... many phone software like A-GPS working with helping ground signal(gprs,radio) and in some country using GPS its only military and they block signal(sadly but truth)

The GPS soft like Garmin, iGO etc you cant use without license(crck down from web) if you needed its poss provide for you :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Draken Korin:
you can easily map programs to both of the buttons

but they will be back to default after reset, it's a tf3d related issue, no permanent fix that I know of

you can workaround that with e.g. a mortscript, here's one to get rsk to be rsk, you can probably adapt it to your needs or generate one yourself

@voonwah: leo-max contains the extras listed in #2, icbicb summed the rest up quite nicely

I'm considering flashing the 28005 LEO ROM - but last time I tested this ROM I was not able to run the gmail-g.jar (2.0.6) as it didn't allow me to type in my password!!! Does anyone know if this still is an issue ? I use the Gmail client a lot so this is important.

Otherwise the ROM worked very well.

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Trimegisto:
Forget about that, I have two different Gmail accounts in my X1 and they are automatically updated every two hours. Just create the accounts on the mail tab and forget about the Google .cab thing.

Or better yet, create a .xml with your mail definitions and you can use to auto recreate your mail config every time you flash a new ROM. The passwords are saved, obviously. :p

sorry :(
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] cykalu:
Try the rom for 24 hours without installing ANYTHING first, have a good lil benchmarking.

Make sure you end task unnecessary applications running in the background of the phone, quitting it through the application itself won't always close it.

End the tasks via Task Manager under tools/utilities folder.

I have came across sudden decrease in battery life because of applications running in the background when i wanted to close them in the first place.

Also, WIFI seems to drain the battery on a epic scale, around 1% per 2 minute of usage.

After figuring and avoiding bad habits of using the phone, i've been able to get through a day of very heavy usage and only spend 20-30% of battery.. but yeah.. WiFi does eat _a lot_ of battery, as well as progs running in the background.

Edit: Also.. the battery and the overall performance of the rom seems to improve after a day or two and after a good recharge of the battery after that. Awesome rom indeed. Im using Leo 5.28005

No problem agent - I'm amazed at your ROMs - and that you can keep up with this on a daily basis - so just keep up the good work :-)

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Psycomatis:
i have the same problem my friend anyone knows what is the problem pls
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] starlit:
I agree. You should give it a try ... eg with google maps. The signals come from the GPS satellites. It will take awhile for u to lock enough satelites (minimum 4), and can take up to 5 mins, unless you use assisted mode (of which India telco may not support. By the way, this must be done with open sky, not in buildings.

Have fun. Thanks for the nice ROMs.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] sandrinopi:
Same here.

In any case I think that nothing is really messed up. The bottom part of the background, which appears corrupted, is the area usually occupied by the menu. The slider is also squashed, but it works correctly.

I think the issue has something to do with the bottom menu bar (not present the the previous versions of WM) that squeezes the slider and partially hides the background.

I have this strange problem but still the password can be entered somehow.

You can try typing a letter, then backspace, and type again, and the newly typed letter would become a asterisk...........

So for every letter in the password, you have to type once, backspace to delete it and type once more, and you can finish! A bit annoying but working for me. :)

I like the gmail java app too~~:D

Bug Report

ive been using the new XPERIO (v5.0.28005) on my X1i for about 2 days now, and I have uncovered some bugs

if anyone else can verify these let me know. It will help Agent_47 solve them if he knows that it is not phone specific.

Opera doesnt work with Wifi on for me

Opera frequently crashes for no good reason

Cell data connection must be frequently refreshed (reconnected) or you cannot automatically receive emails

Phone will hang randomly (during games, regular use) for like a minute and will recover fine, but this gets VERY annoying*

The X2 task manager is cool, but it somehow crashes sometimes and cannot be pulled up and used until reboot. dont think there is anything you can do about this unless we can find a newer version of it

New Panel Manager is pretty unstable. Again, i would assume there isnt much you can do here except just not cook it in

Some shortcuts are broken (i think this was already mentioned) such as the calculator

SMS sometimes does not alert you and delays vibration until you wake up phone

Comm manager (the start menu one) toggle buttons appear to not actually toggle things. The bluetooth and wifi ones just dont work. You have to do it via titanium, default WM comm manager or preferences

Battery gauge can be completely different after a reboot. This really isnt that big of a deal though because it easily lasts a whole day's worth of usage for me hence i dont have to rely on the gauge.

Despite these bugs this is still the best cooked rom you can find ANYWHERE on these forums for any device IMO. Its nice that i have finally found a ROM just about as reliable as stock. I hate having to take my battery back off to manually soft reset, but fortunately i dont have to worry about that.

The new 28005 build is better with memory and speed, but it lacks the bug-freeness of the 23506 build.

I hope these bug reports help you out. Let me know if you need any more debug information, i will get it to you ASAP.

Thanks again Agent_47 for making a cooked rom that is good enough for daily use and not just show. Its stability and reliability are unprecedented. I am greatly anticipating your next release.

(*)= i think that the hangs are related to the new X2 stuff

I've started to use 28005 Leo-Max ROM few days ago and has noticed it's blazing fast performance. I'm generally very satisfied with this ROM.

However, I'm having the same volume issue too. No matter how many times I set the volume to 100%, it always defaulted as 50% at every calls I make. I have to manually dump the volume back up to 100%. I tried to use the VolKey Fixer under utility. It doesn't seem to give any help. Also, when I select to load VolKey Fixer at bootup, it actually never auto load Volkey Fixer.

Thoughts on FS Rhodium\TOPAZ v5.0.28005

General Thoughts:

Before -Older Versions-

I haven't been using Agent's rom for a while now since I was having problems with it before (random restarts, battery life ..etc) -no offence agent-.

Though it wasn't bad (fastest rom I've ever seen), there were just too many problems with it for everyday use.

Now -TOPAZ v5.0.28005-

Still really fast, great battery life, minor bugs that can be fixed if you find the right patches.

Performance:

Ok, performance is pretty good. Only thing is startup takes about a minute after you get to the home screen. This is a little longer then what I'm used to, but you almost never need to restart the device unless if you install something because this ROM is

stable

.

After the device loads, the device is very speedy. I noticed no lag in titanium at all, but once in a blue moon, it will lag in manilla. A chef always has to balance performance and battery life and I think Agent has made the perfect combination.

Battery Life:

Very good. I didn't like WM 6.5 because battery life was kind of crappy, but this ROM does really well for the performance.

I'm at 32% battery life right now and here's what I've been doing:

-Device is always connected to edge for Gmail exchange

-Auto updates weather every 2 hours using titanium

-On standby while I slept (4h)

-I get around 5 emails with word doc attachments all downloaded into storage card. (9 emails total)

-Typed notes using bluetooth keyboard in Pocket Word for 5 hours

-Browsed internet using opera for 1 hour.

-Have been turning device on and off all day (calender checking, date checking, time checking, htorch, email viewing, email sending)

Fixes

I used to have problems with wifi randomly turning on even though I never used it, but I saw the wifi bt fix in Agent's post and I think that fixed the problem.

For people who want the right hard key turned into right softkey and not a today button, there is a file called ManillaToday.dll that I found that fixed this.

Opera 10 has problems, but is easily fixable. I found that if you have turbo mode on, you should not have mobile view on as well or opera will crash.

Some people have already mentioned that the volume when in call is always at 50% even if you set it to 100%. Haven't searched for a fix yet because I haven't been getting a whole lot of calls lately so I'm not too concerned.

-Anyways, great ROM. I don't think I need flash for another few months.
